A ReadyLink connection is capable of delivering Gigabit speeds over twisted pair or coax. To acheive maximum througput, it is important to follow some best practices.
Best practices
- Good cable terminations
- Stable power source
- Cable continuity
Refer to the twisted pair or coax cabling instructions for details on how to terminate different ReadyLink connections.
It is important to note the distance limitations for acheiving 1Gbps throughput. Speed will vary by cable type, length, and gauge, but some general guidelines for 1Gbps connections are shown below.
Througput vs Distance
- Single pair (SISO): 1Gpbs up to 400ft
- Two pair (MIMO): 1Gpbs up to 1,000ft
- Coax: 1Gpbs up to 1,400ft
- *Note speeds will vary by cable type and gauge
Check your connection health in the ReadyView dashboard. A low health score can indicate a poor connection, resulting in reduced throughput.
